Thank You Loll and Deepti!

Hello friends.  One more Christmas card to share with you with a huge Thank You to Loll Thompson and Deepti Malik for their generosity!  I played along with Loll's Twelve Tags of Christmas challenge this past December and received an honourable mention for one of my tags, and was also a random draw winner for the Christmas Bell Medley stamp set designed by Deepti!  This is a smaller stamp set, but my oh my does it pack a punch!!  I absolutely LOVED playing with it, and came up with this card:



A pretty simple card really, but love the way it turned out!!  Started with embossing the Mistletoe stamp in white, and then coloring it in with my Aqua Painter and SU! inks (Gumball Green, Mossy Meadow, Real Red, & Cherry Cobbler).  Added the tree branch in Early Espresso ink, and then the pine sprig with Mossy Meadow (spritzed with water before stamping to give the water colored look)ink.  Embossed the ribbon bow in gold and then added a few rainstones (PTI) after assembling the card.  Fun, fun set, and I only used a few of the stamps included, so I know I'm going to get a lot more mileage out of this one!

Thank you again to Loll and Deepti for your generosity and inspiration...you gals are simply the best!!  :0)

Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!  :0)
